sorcerer77 Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Just use the new script with this logo and I'll be happy. And I'm not even a Bucco fan.Keep that script, it's way better.As a Bucs fan, I was never impressed with that logo. The Pirate was lifted from the 1940s, and the mustache seemed a little odd. The diamond background was being used already by the Orioles at least, and seemed boring. The best part of this logo was the scroll or treasure map pattern on the graphics. Honestly, I prefer the 1968-86 logo.The 1997-present logo is better than a number of teams, like the Rays and Astros. I do like the fact the iconic "P" logo has been used more prominently in recent years, starting with the alternate black jersey. Most Pirate fans will tell you that's the real identifier since it belongs on the hat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sorcerer77 Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 The matching late-1930s "Pirates" script was nice as well. I'd love to see them wear it as a throwback.I'll never understand why teams like Boston and Atlanta water down their set with unnecessary and frankly poor-looking coloured alts instead of sporting throwbacks (Atlanta's halfway there, at least).Pirates have worn these uniforms as a throwback before, I believe it was in 1992. This set was worn with the blue hat and red "P". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sorcerer77 Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 A more updated or modern version of this:Couldn't agree more with this view, the current logo is bland. The 1973-96 script logo is associated with outstanding teams, even though there was a decline from 1984-96. So many great college players and eventual NFL Pro Bowlers wore this uniform. In fact, six Panthers who wore this helmet are in Canton, and that number ranks with the University of Miami's eventual Canton output. The 1976 National Championship club was memorable, as they routed Notre Dame(at South Bend), Penn State, and handed Georgia one of the biggest losses an SEC Champ has ever suffered in a bowl game.

This is the Pirates logo I grew up with, but looks more like a guy named Chet at a Jimmy Buffet concert than anything I should necessarily be scared of: I also learned about this guy:Why haven't I seen more of him? 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewharrington Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Check the left side, third one down. That's the maritime signal flag designated for C.How the hell did you figure that one out?That's pretty cool.I'm interested in signal flags and things of that ilk. I always thought it would be cool to use the L and A signal flags as the basis for a uniform, or to use the N and Y or the L and I flags for the Islanders.

Mingjai Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 While the look is a bit dated, I think I'd like to see these make a comeback (sublimated stars and all): Visit my store on REDBUBBLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DG_ThenNowForever Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 It's sad that this could never happen again, but I really enjoyed Darryl Talley's Spider-Man look:That whole set looks pretty amazing. I'd love to see that be the throwback look now, considering how close the new set is to the AFL uniforms. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiltman Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 If and when the Eagles get a new look....I hope we Modernize the Full Eagle logo, and translate the Vermeil era Unis to the modern template....maybe instead of as sleeves making the striping on the shoulder like Michigan did last year.
